Description
Join me for an amazing traverse in Hokkaido, hiking from Mt Rausu (Rausudake) to Mt Io (Shiretoko Iozan).
During this 2 or 3-day trip, we’ll be hiking on the ridge line of the Shiretoko Peninsula.
We will start hiking from a low altitude forest and go forward to a volcanic ridge line. In addition to a wonderful trekking experience, you can enjoy a guided tour about alpine plants and wild animals.
Besides, we’ll spend the nights in a tent, enjoying the beautiful environment.
In fact, this region is a Natural World Heritage Site, famous for its wide variety of natural life.
This program is ideal for experienced hikers. I recommend to take a 3-day itinerary so you can have enough time to walk. Please inform me of your past trekking / hiking experiences when contacting me.

Amazing experience. Took 5hrs to summit. Cloudy and little wind made it easier. Skies opened up 100M from the top. We summited and then we skied fresh powder into the crater. Well worth it.
